I hope we don't take a running back in the fourth round, but I would be fine with one in the 5th-7th round.  If you look at our 53 man roster, I don't see a lot of positions where late round draft picks would have a good chance of making the team.  However, running back is one of them.  Teams typically keep 4 running backs.  Because of injuries and needs at other positions, the Jaguars let their 4th running back (Hasty) go mid-season and haven't replaced him.  They basically were using Snoop on their practice squad as their fourth running back, but even he's gone too.  A depth pick at running back today does actually make quite a bit of sense.  I am also one who would like to see a pure power back on this team for those short yardage situations.
